The last time I posted on her, I suspected a hint of green among the dry, dead buds and leaves. I know that most people set a calendar date, pull them out from the roots, and smoke. I would rather pick the buds that look nice the day before if I want to smoke some, and I am certainly not selling it.

This picture is from today. I zoomed in to the part that is nearest the main stem. As you saw in my last MJ post, it looked like there was no hope, but I let it go all winter and kept watering it. This post is an update on the health of the three plants I got about a year ago.

The biggest plant is sprouting greenery from all the seemingly dead branches...

... as well as from the main stem. And we are not even in full fledged summer yet, although the heat might say otherwise on some days.

And one more look at her perkiness!

The one planted upside down, like the others, stayed green until late mid-winter and them turned into a stick protruding from the bottom of the baby's pot. You will have a photo of that one if or when it comes back to life. They both live on the bars of my terrace door.

Here's the baby. It is three time taller and voluminous that it was at the end of last summer.

The purple pot below this one is the upside downq chili-peppers that I posted about some time back. It is warm enough for them to be outside now.

Getting back to the baby of the fragrant ones, This was all that was left of it two months ago...

If I brush away all the dead stuff, it looks like new stem just grew right through the dead lump into a new plant!

I am so grateful to have them back again. The entire terrace reeks of their flavor. I love the smell of these plants and even of the smoke. The effects of that smoke on me, well, I need to be in a place where nothing needs to be done for a while.

A good movie and lots of great munchies and I might partake. God gave us this plant as well as the fruit and vegetable ones.

Here is another view of each of the survivors.

The baby with some leaves longer that my longest finger.

And the one that was always the biggest, though the baby is catching up fast.

That is my update for today!

I still have many things to share with you all. I have not had time to capture everything I am doing in the garden. I have to replant many of them per day and each would be a good post. I just cannot do them all. I am printing pots for the first stacked planter. That will save me a lot of floor space. There is also another wider, taller, stacked planter that will take ages to complete, but I want you all to be a part of it.

Thanks for following and commenting on my posts. Your support is appreciated!
